(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
The goal of this inductive study was to identify factors that facilitate and inhibit binational collaboration in the recovery of endangered species in the northern Mexico borderlands, focusing on the Mexican wolf (Canis ...
Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O thin films grown by flash evaporation and pulsed laser deposition
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
Bismuth-Strontium-Calcium-Copper-Oxide (BSCCO) compounds are an important family of compounds that have one of the highest transition temperatures among all high-temperature superconductors. The compound is known to exist ...
THE EFFECTS OF ELECTRON BEAM IRRADIATION AND SANITIZERS IN THE REDUCTION OF PATHOGENS AND ATTACHMENT PREVENTION ON SPINACH
(2010-07-14)
The effects of electron beam (e-beam) irradiation and sanitizers in the reduction
of Escherichia coli O157:H7 and Salmonella counts and attachment prevention on
spinach was studied. Survival of these pathogens in spinach ...
Automation of a Wireless Cotton Module Tracking System for Cotton Fiber Quality Mapping
(2010-10-12)
The ability to map the profit made across a cotton field would enable producers to see in
detail where money is being made or lost on their farms. This ability, which requires sitespecific
knowledge of yield, fiber quality, ...
